Cal,
You're exactly right about Bullitt, it is a classic and one of Steve McQueen's best. I have it in my collection also and I still get tachycardia when the Charger's driver reaches down and tightens his seat belt because I know that within seconds the hill hopping will commence.(Watch the hubcaps disappear and reappear in the next frames as they skid through the streets and sideswipe the parked cars) The fact that McQueen did all of his own driving without a stunt backup is incredible. Bisset is a living testamonial that it is possible to age with grace, dignity and appeal. The fact that she drove a Porsche 356 just adds to her beauty. McQueen satisfies that subconscious desire that we all share with the contempt for arrogant authority especially when he lays it on the line with Vaughn at the airport.
Great film choice!
